IV. CONCLUSION
Based on constructivism perspective, the media is a product of the ideology and socio-
cultural beliefs of its managers and owners. Entman (2010: 337) says that the media bias is
getting stronger when various interests scramble for influence to win the hearts of the public.
Media that have a high awareness of social responsibility will be able to withstand that bias
on condition that they always evaluate and 'clean up' the potential threats of any interests that
easily come unexpectedly.
From the results of the study it can be concluded that online media in Indonesia is still
significant with bias in political interests. This bias is even more apparent when related to the
phenomenon of the General Election event which is only a month away from the Romy
booming case in the mass media on March 15, 2019. In this context, republika.com is trying
not to overly politicize the Romy case. In the case of the inclusion of identity there is an
attempt to disguise the identity. Likewise in terms of causal interpretation, this media does
not seem to form a public opinion that Romy has caused a criminal act of corruption. In other
hand, Kompas.com trying to be neutral, reflecting in the analysis of problem identification
and moral evaluation. Meanwhile viva.co.id, although covering the coverage of Romy arrest
in very smooth manner, in the second and third news appear to be trying to highlight the
identity of the perpetrators and implicitly direct the public mind to blame Romy as the cause
of an extra-ordinary criminal act.
Moving forward from now, more comprehensive research needs to be done on the extent
to which new media plays its role in participating in political contestation, not only in the
General Election event, but also in daily political dynamics. It is important to examine, in
what extend the media and press in Indonesia are able to survive and to not dissolve in the
bias of certain (political) interest.
